Kid Rock Cares About the Kids
October 27, 2008
He really does! The native Detroit rocker is giving a little back and partnering with Wayne State University to fund a music scholarship to boost Detroit youth interest in music and, presumably, all things that rock the rust belt. His T-shirt company, "Made in Detroit," is footing the bill and rolling out limited edition tees featuring the MID tag embedded in Wayne State's logo. All the proceeds go to local kids who wanna rock. Why Wayne State? Rolling Stone has named it among the top the schools that rock. Whatever. But give it up for the Kid!
“This city has been very good to me and my family,” Rock said in a statement. “I truly believe that a major part of Detroit’s healing and moving forward will come through education. Look just at our musical history in this city. If we don’t encourage and get behind these kids to develop their musical talents then shame on us. They deserve a chance and that’s why I decided to start this scholarship. My hope is that someday some young boy or girl from Detroit or the surrounding suburbs can become one of the greatest talents of their generation.” And then go on to appreciate the finer assets of Pam Anderson.
